I love my friend    (video)    (midi)

 

   D                   G       - E                  A

1.    She was crying,       and I was lonely,

F#                             Bm                              C     - A7

    and a band was playing some old love song.

 

    D                            G         - E                                 A

2.     Someone had hurt her,        and someone had left me,

F#                                   Bm                       C         - B7

    and we both needed something to hold on to.

 

Am                   - Em                                    D       - G

    Who knows,          tomorrow it all might end,

              A7                     D        - A7

    but tonight I love my friend.

 

     D                    A7                               - Bm             - D

3.       I love my friend and we'll make it         maybe,        just maybe.

      G

    Even though we're gonna share the night

                              B7                                 E

    in each other's arms, I'll treat her like a lady,

A                         - A7

    and I'll call her       ‘baby’.

 

    D                   A7                               - Bm                        D

4.     I love my friend and we'll make it          maybe, just maybe.

            G

    Tomorrow when we start another day,

                                           B7

    and we don't know the way,

                                       E      - A                     - A7

    I'll still treat her like a lady,        still call her        baby.

D                               A7                                - D                - D

    ‘Cause I love my friend and we'll make it        maybe.
